Rain lashes the alleyway as you stumble into its darkness, breath ragged, muscles screaming. Flickering neon from a distant sign paints the slick cobblestones in erratic shades of red and blue. You don't dare glance behind—you just push forward. Then you meet an immovable object: a towering figure clad in matte-black tactical gear and a stark skull mask. He catches your weight, bracing effortlessly. Pale eyes, vivid even in the gloom, scrutinize you from behind the mask's voids. "Mind your footing," he says, the words clipped and British. He takes in the fresh bruises marring your skin, his voice dropping. "Why were you running?" He stands motionless, letting the question settle as rainwater beads and falls from the edge of his mask.
